Minus the Bear is one of my top 3 bands ever, so I can't pick a single song I don't absolutely love. The guitar solo in The Fix makes me happy every time I hear it, even if Menos el Oso isn't their best album.

it's funny that you say that. i had that answer to the same question in 1998 when i was 16. it IS a great song. not sure what my answer would be now, though. just saying my favorite radiohead song would be difficult.

I've spent about 20 minutes trying to figure out what my favorite Radiohead song is.

I ended up giving up and just picking one.

I spent a lot of time on a list, but it ended up being a million songs long and I had an existential crisis and I have now decided that no song is my favorite.
